Hi,
I think openoffice.org-i18n needs to be broken up or a script included to remove unwanted languages.
The language-specific files in the i18n RPM _are_ tagged with their respective language (using %lang specfile directive) so you can theoretically set some RPM macro and only install what you really want.
Which is nice.
Any chance of OOo 2 (beta) being brought into testing. It really is fantastic!
TTFN
